need to know how she went from gay yearning to “we need to storm the bastille”

So it's kinda interesting how Jinx is basically Caitlyn's own extremely malevolent genie. Every desire she has, Jinx fulfills, but with such a cruel twist that it almost defeats the point.

Want something new and exciting in your sheltered life? Well, one might say nearly getting blown up is pretty exciting. Looking for a real job to undertake? Here's a convenient pile of evidence leading you straight to the heart of a criminal empire. Good luck getting out of this mess though. Coworkers making you feel excluded? They can't do that now; they're dead. Longing to see Vi again? Don't worry. You will be taken to her, like it or not. Mum being too restrictive? Never again!

It's no wonder Jinx is associated with monkeys when her role in the show is ensuring a monkey's paw curls any time Caitlyn has a vague inclination towards something.

So far, everytime Ambessa tried to impart her "wisdom" onto someone, a child is killed shortly after.

First was with Mel. To teach Mel how cutthroat the world can be and how to act in accordance with it, Ambessa beheaded the princess in front of her.

Then there was Jayce. Ambessa's advice spurred Jayce into action to violently raid Silco's refinery, which lead to the death of Renni's son at Jayce's hands.

Now we have Caitlyn. We know Caitlyn will be under Ambessa's guidance in s2, and she will only push Caitlyn to become a more aggressive and authoritarian force over Zaun, all the while a new young child character is introduced. What's the worst that can happen?

‼️‼️ARCANE SPOILERS‼️‼️

Look I like Caitlyn as much as the next person (although end of episode 3 was kinda wild) but the inheritance key raised a flag for me.

I think Caitlyn was much more deep into grief than she thought, because she lacks to realize that the inheritance key WAS LITERALLY THE KEY TO START A PEACEFUL SOLUTION.

Let me explain:

The inheritance key showed Caitlyn the technology (it seems to exclusive only to the Kirammans, if not, surely the under city would have fixed it or used it as a weapon like Caitlyn did) that controls the air pollution.

Obviously the mechanics of controlling the air pollution is flawed (ex: Viktor) but Piltover offering to update air systems or limit pollution, would make them looks like they give a shit.

That is the number one thing that most of the under city/Zaun citizens (not Silco’s inner circle, they are like Zaun’s version of the 1%) cares about, that Piltover prevents them to wither to die and give them a chance to breathe (aka they gave a shit about their well being). To give them opportunities to live and grow.

Offering to fix the main pollution that literally haunting the Zaun narrative, is a great start of rebuilding Piltover’s and Zauns relationship. Hell, Piltover could even strike a deal to fix the pollution but to still have Jinx captured in return. (Sorry girl, but you still attacked the counselors and there is no way Piltover is gonna let that fly, even if the leaders of Piltover are kinder in this version.)

In my little head canon, that’s probably why Jinx was so horrified that Vi was hunting her down in that way. Jinx already kinda knew that Vi was smooching with an enforcer and that there is a possibility that killing the enforcer’s mother aka a councilor, could push Vi to be involved in some way of the enforcers. (I say Jinx probably knows because she kidnapped Caitlyn from her home and seeing a random enforcer living in very nice home would lead Jinx to investigate. Afterall Caitlyn did haunt her hallucinations for a bit.) But knowing and seeing are two very different things and Jinx probably did not expect Vi to be high ranking enforcer and using such a vulgar way to hunt her down. It was more than a slap in the face.

Jinx can figure out a bit by her expertise (but not a lot cause she only focuses on weapons because of Silco) that CaitVi’s team can control and maintain the air pollution but choose not to do it for the better for the community, just to hurt her.

Smh, my queen grieving Caitlyn really chose violence and thought that literal guns were the solution. The NRA would have loved her 😭

Anyway, this is what I thought. Sorry if my wording can be confusing, I’m dyslexic, but if I have any errors plz kindly point them out. Or tell me if there is any plot holes or fun scenarios that I forgot related to this.

Which version is better?

Personally, I couldn't decide which version I liked more, so here's a simple colored and rendered one.

😰😰

[chronicsyd]

And JUST to hurt y’all’s feelings:

This is most likely happening after Vi leaves Caitlyn after the temple fight, because Vi’s most likely going to be Pissed at Caitlyn for trying to take Jinx’s life. I was wondering why Caitlyn looks SO upset after the teaser dropped, because if it was only her failing to stop Jinx she wouldn't be wearing this expression; she would be disappointed in not being able to stop Jinx but that doesn't match the look she's wearing here. But if Vi were to get mad at her and leave, she would Absolutely be looking this upset and devastated about it, she's almost on the verge of tears here.

Also another reminder: the Annecy festival mentioned Vi having Caitlyn hallucinations while being drunk… I can already Feel the angst edits with that one!

Ha! Ha-ha… we’re SO cooked 😭😭

[violets-emotionalbreakdown]

I'm so excited for dark Vi. Her having a breakdown and hitting rock bottom is critical to her arc and the narrative and I'm glad we seem to be getting that.

I've seen so many arguments that she's strong, she's stoic, Jinx is the broken one (so vi should forgive everything bc Jinx is still suffering but Vi seems fine so Jinx accidentally killing their family doesn't matter, right?) , etc and tbh I hate them.

She was out of prison for what, 3-4 days in s1? Maybe a week at most? She's still in survival mode. It's hard to have a trauma breakdown when you're fighting for your life, and you don't go through what she did and come out unscathed because you're "strong". That's not how people work.

From a writing standpoint, the narrative had to focus on Jinx's issues in s1 in order to show us the transition from Powder to Jinx and make us understand how she has changed and who she has become. It wasn't Vi's time yet. She only had two real drives that we saw - stay alive and find her sister (and later protect Caitlyn). That's all the narrative needed from her at the time. It is silly to assume that just because the narrative doesn't delve extensively into her trauma that it isn't there.

She has years of emotional backlog and a truly massive amount of trauma to get through. Hitting rock bottom is step one.
